Greetings everyone. Hope all is well.
I've sent invites to quite a few who were in last season's Super League, and have again qualified to be in the most competitive DT league.
Hope you can all return for another season, and help us take out top spot again.
For anyone who didn't qualify, I've created a group where you can keep tabs on how the best are faring.

Not sure he will, but even if he did, not sure I'd want him. Has missed 5/9 in the past.

Saliba last season played every minute. He scored 279 pts in DT.
Appearance = 38 x 2 = 76
CS = 18 x 6 = 108
Goals = 2 x 12 = 24
Assists = 1 x 8 = 8.
So 279 - 216 means he only scored 63 misc pts from 38 full starts, or less than 2 misc pts per game on average.
Given ARS have Villa (lost both), Spurs (conceded 2 in both) and City (actually kept 2 CS), all away in the first 5 games, I'm staying away.
Havertz on the other hand, averaged 16 in the last 14 games, playing as a striker.
He was poor as an attacking MID, hence his low average.
If he plays striker again, he's a must IMO, given he's listed as a MID.
Foden also finished the season on a blinder, with 2 hatties and 3 braces. A must IMO.

My first draft. Thinking it's quite close to the final product, given the majority of the players I had scouted before DT opened, have come in at excellent prices. Would have preferred Nkunku as a FOR, to free a MID spot, as I don't fancy Armstrong.
If Ederson is sold, Ortega will likely come in.
Maatsen and Armstrong the only two that I'm looking to replace. Very happy with the rest.
But at their price, there's low risk having them.
Yoro could be an option to replace Maatsen, who faces competition for his spot. MAN play first. If he's starting, he's in.
Got my eye on James Justin too. Very attacking in the past in EPL.
If Trippier is sold, Livramento will be a bargain.
Mateta another that finished on fire last season. But with Olise moving to Bayern, he might not repeat that.
He's looking for a move too so his departure would scratch that itch.
